all of the sudden my hd just stopped working its not that old and it boots to safemode and is useable no problem. when i atempt to boot windows normally it gets to the black windows screen than goes to the login screen but gets all messed up. It takes forever for it to come up than the screen is all funny than the comp reboots. Any ideas would be apreciated i have tried doing stuff through repair and such but it doesnt even see the hard drive.

I have a user account set up on it already it barely even lets me get to that. when i go to safemode it gives me the option of my account and the main account. what happens is it gets to the black windoes screen than it goes away as to go to the log in screen than it sits for like ever sometimes it comes up most of the time it doesnt. So even if i did get a new account setup i cant get to the login part to login

in order to do that i need to start the alerter and i cant do that in safe mode i have been through this lol i did the same thing when i first built this thing but i cant remember how i fixed it. Now when i try to boot it it just sits at the blue screen after the windows logo than it reboots or just sits there no error message though.
